Cell Organiza,on: Least to Most Complex
• Cell – Basic unit that performs a certain
funcGon (e.g. skin cell)
• _________

• Organ – One or more different Gssue

types working together (e.g. stomach)
• Organ System – A group of organs
working together (e.g. digesGve system)
• Organism – Many different organ
systems working together (e.g. a
person)
 Specialized Cells
• Each cell type in your body is meant to do a
certain thing really well
• The combinaGon of all these cells working
together, produce a living organism
